Since Purtell was appointed to fill Brien McMahon's term, wouldn't that also include up to January 3, 1953? I am assuming that term of McMahon didn't conclude on election day, 1952, but rather January 3, 1953, right? I'm assuming this was a simple error, but not wholly sure. --PerpetuityGrat (talk) 14:58, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
